The modern parliament building was built in the 60s. Before that, the parliament was located in the so-called Frumin's house in the city center. The building was named after the Frumin family, which began the construction of this house before the War of Independence, as a residential building with rows of shops on the ground floor. There, in 1957, a hand grenade was thrown into the meeting room. Monday Tuesday and Wednesday plenary meetings are held. You can attend them.
